A short history of E11
A stone long held to be a Roman milestone stands near the eastern edge of the old parish of Leyton, though its obelisk is a restored one from the 18th century.

In 1878 the Epping Forest Act kept over 200 acres of open land for public use. Of 15 listed buildings nearby, Leytonstone Library and the gatepiers at Overton Drive are Grade II*.
